Full Description

Three curvilinear ditches of uncertain date are visible as cropmarks on air photographs, centred at SK5788 8881.

The ditches are spaced between 48m and 38m apart and lie on a west east alignment. The central one is 'L shaped' in plan and appears narrower than the other two.

It is possible that these features are archaeology but they may be of geological nature. (1)
